It's easy to add your own stations and share them with other World Radio users.
I use Radium, and find it to be excellent. I would however like to see countries listed in the menu to make it a little easier searching for a suitable radio stations Having a search box is ok, but listing countries that are available to tune into would be nice.
I am looking for a new radio app and I would buy this one Except. There is no way to try it out first? I tried the beta and found it less pleasing than Radium. Now that there has been new development I would like to give it another go and maybe purchase. Nope not the case. I have no way to try the app and I am certainly not going to plunk down money on something that I have not tried for myself.
I do not care what all the reviews in the world say, unless I use it for myself it is not good.
Well since it has been a couple of months and I can not remember why I decided to stick with Radium and since there is no trial app there is no way to find out if your app would work better for me now. This apparently is the trend these days though so no hard feelings towards your app in particular. It is nice to see a responsive developer though.
Hey Cool, Went to the web site some days later and there is a trial version. Downloading it now to see if it plays my favorite station without the stutter that happens with my other radio player. Thanks for the demo.
Lee123, are you aware that you may not need another app to play your favorite station?
Once you get the station's URL, you can probably add it to your preferred music player, be it Winamp (on PC) or iTunes (on Mac).
I used to use SnowTape to listen to radio stations on my Mac, but I added the stations to iTunes and use it now.
